4 Helping hands For Eurofox the helping hands ethos covers many aspects of your business from getting the right product in the right place at the right time to the introduction to our Eurofox partners including appropriate installers, facade manufacturers and trade associations We can introduce you to specialist facade installers/enveloping contractors selected by geographical location, project scope and size We offer comprehensive technical support - available as AutoCAD files, method statements, and as animations. All Eurofox support systems are available as NBS Plus Specification Clauses Partnerships are important. Based upon significant international and domestic experience we can introduce you to original facade manufacturers - Market leaders who have adopted Eurofox as their support system of choice AutoCAD Helpful Sales support staff will be able to assist with current stock availability and price information. Immediate stock allocation is available to get a project underway and to ensure its smooth running We hold extensive stocks of brackets, components and extrusions We offer a prompt efficient delivery service, accurately picked, clearly identified whenever and wherever required

5 Vertical fixing Installation vertical fixing 1 Clipped Connection, adjust For initial line and level adjustment the EUROFOX profiles are clipped into the MacFOX-brackets 2 Final Fixing After adjustment the EUROFOX profiles are fixed to the MacFOX-brackets with screws. Round holes and elongated holes in the MacFOX-brackets allow for the creation of both, fixed points (FP) and flexible fixing points (GP) MacFOX fixed point The vertical profile is fixed to the MacFOX support bracket by screws through the round holes. The MacFOX bracket absorbs both vertical dead loads and horizontal wind loads 4 MacFOX flexible point Screws fixed through the elongated holes connect the vertical profile to the MacFOX bracket. Consequently, thermal expansion is not constrained by the support system. The MacFOX flexible point bracket absorbs windloads only 5 5 Structural system vertical fixing Each vertical profile is fixed to one MacFOX fixed point and a number of MacFOX flexible point brackets. As a consequence of thermal expansion, the length of the profiles normally does not exceed the storey height. The bracket spacing is determined by cladding options such as the dimensions and weight of the facade cladding, wind loads and cladding zone Eurofox systems are fully adjustable in 1 mm increments from 40 mm mm Horizontal fixing Installation horizontal fixing Clipped connection, adjust For initial line and level adjustment the Eurofox profiles are clipped into the XFox brackets 7 Final fixing After adjustment the profiles are fixed to the XFOX-brackets with screws. Round holes and elongated holes in the XFOXbrackets allow the creation of both, fixed points (FP) and flexible points (GP) 5

6 Our approach to facades Eurofox Aluminium Rainscreen cladding support systems have been developed to service the ever changing face of facade design and the Architects / Engineers demands for more flexible and economical cladding solutions and are suitable for New Build / Renovation - Steel / Concrete / SIPS substructure - up to any height Modern Rainscreen support systems need to maintain quality and offer excellent technical performance - We offer advanced vertical and horizontal support systems, utilising both mechanical fix and structural adhesive techniques for visible and concealed construction Eurofox systems are available for facades ranging from lightweight panels to 70 + kg/m2 cladding elements Eurofox facade ventilated rainscreen systems incorporate extruded aluminium fully adjustable helping hand support bracket and rail systems, and include Eurofox isolator pads to mitigate cold bridging Cladding zones from mm can be accommodated. This versatility provides the designer with an almost infinite range of facade appearances and layout options, each of which must be safely engineered? Timb Met Aluminium Composite (ACM Fibre Cemen High Pressure laminate (HP Fibre Concre Ceramic / Thin Sto Terracot Rend The dimensional lo facade / facade we corporating insulat in accordance with imposed and wind At Eurofox we believe that cladding is a serious business. Eurofox offer a support service for the safe and optimised setting out of Rainscreen bracket components, rails and grid systems. The structural requirements of the back framing system can be calculated to ensure the integrity of the installation. Project material quantities can be accurately estimated and potential cost savings identified Eurofox can provide static calculations and setting out information for the components and rails that will be required to support the chosen facade. Each calculation is project specific and will reflect the engineering intent of the scheme e.g. panel weight / cladding zone / building height and the architectural intent e.g. panel layout Straightforward access is provided via completion of the Project Checklist via Eurofox systems are all produced in European facilities and are manufactured using appropriate alloys - Systems have been tested in the UK at BRE and Taylor Woodrow facilities Design Matters - Static calculations - Specification writing assistance - AutoCAD - Layout advice - Method statements
